MDSkin and MDSkin Bar use SkinPen®, the world’s first FDA-cleared microneedling device. As the SkinPen applicator tip is applied to the skin, thousands of superficial micro-channels or holes are created. This process stimulates your skin’s natural ability to heal itself. The repair process begins almost immediately — as a result, new collagen and elastin produce softer, firmer skin, as well as the reduction of wrinkles, acne scars, and textural issues.
If you have certain skin conditions like fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, hyperpigmentation, or lax skin, microneedling may be able to help you. Microneedling can be used on patients looking for skin rejuvenation. The best way to know if this treatment can benefit you is by meeting with our team of specialists at MDSkin in Scottsdale, Arizona.
There is no downtime to recover from the procedure, but the treatment will result in redness that may take anywhere from 24 hours to 4 days to subside.
Visible improvements to the treated area begin to appear over 1 to 3 weeks. Continued improvement may continue for up to 6 months following treatment.
For optimal results, we usually perform 2 to 3 treatments at intervals of 2 to 4 weeks. More severe or advanced conditions, such as scars or deeper wrinkles, can require up to 8 sessions spaced anywhere from 2 to 6 weeks apart.
Your journey begins with a personalized blueprint that serves as a comprehensive, long-term plan to feeling & looking your best. A patient interview establishes aesthetic concerns and sets individual goals. Each plan then includes a daily skincare regimen and monthly, quarterly, and annual recommendations for more advanced treatments.
